The Permission to Hustle Retreat took place last month and BOY did we have FUN! 40 women out to sea with Carnival Cruise - what more could you ask for? Business + pleasure = a shipload of memories! I was going to write "boatload" of memories... but Carnival is a ship. NOT a boat. I have learned my lesson, folks. I have learned my lesson. :)

After a very long pow wow, Audrey McClelland and I have decided to refocus our attention on the things we love to do. We asked ourselves four questions about every type of work we did in 2017:Did it make us money?
Did it provide us joy?
Can we see it growing into something larger?
Does it align with industry trends?I'm not going to bore you with our entire list, but one type of work came out shining on top - and that's Facebook Lives. If you follow our Audrey and Vera page, … [Read more...]

And besides, a little dry shampoo goes a long way! :)However, would I go 9 days without a wash? I couldn't even … [Read more...]

Ok, folks. I love this girl... but she is so freaking mean to me! She has ZERO tolerance for when I am sick or for when I show any symptoms of an allergy attack. I blame it on her husband. They are just so grumpy together! Any other thing, Audrey is all pixie dust and rainbows. But don't tell her you feel like you are getting a head cold because she will insult you straight to the ground.Take a look at how she treats me when I tell her I am having a reaction to food I ate the night before. … [Read more...]

This keto guacamole recipe is low carb and filled with flavor. I just love to make homemade guacamole and tend to never lean on store-bought options because of all the extra added sugar you find in those packages. When you make your dip, you control all the ingredients – which is key when every bit […]
